Tag: fan filter

The main job of the cooling fan in electronics or computers is to keep the system cool. The chips found in these devices get so hot when the system is operating, and there is a need to ensure that the temperature is brought to a fairly constant level. In case in temperature affects some of the electronic components such as diodes and resistors decreasing their efficiency.

The computer fan maintains a constant flow of air thus cooling the system. Sometimes the stock fans within the electronic devices are not enough especially when you have different components that are working together like in an entertainment center or an office. In such a set-up, you are required to have a good fan filter and a fan.

Types of cooling fans

Central processing unit

This is a fan which operates smoothly within the central processing unit CPU to ensure that the system performs well. The internal temperature in anew CPU ranges from 35-74 degree Celsius. A constant flow of air from a fan filter and a fan is necessary to maintain this temperature. A CPU operating at a temperature of 80 degrees is likely to fail, and you might be forced to purchase a new unit.

Power supply

Most of the power supply units are equipped with a 120 mm fan filter or a 90mm fan filter as well as an internal fan. There are some of the power supply systems which have two fans both the intake and outtake fans. It is very critical to maintain the operating temperature of this device to increase the lifespan of your equipment. Overheating of the power supply system could lead to melting or exploding off the various components. The absence of the cooling fan would significantly reduce the life span of the power system.

Graphic processing unit

You will find this fan in the video cards. This fan helps in keeping he games to work smoothly without major issues. It shares the same similarities with the central processing unit fan.

Chipset

Chipsets are found on the motherboard of the computer. The motherboard is designed with an inbuilt fan and fan filters. Additionally, it is also equipped with a very efficient passive heat set up systems which are preferred by most people. All these elements help in keeping your motherboard cool and operative.

Case fans

They are also referred to as the chassis fans. They are not found in all the systems. The system is considered to be very ineffective and cannot be relied on completely to cool the system.…
